Click-to-enlarge image available from its current-location page.The roughly business-letter-size Portrait of Joost de Zoete (1541-1589), Lord of Villers is described in the Bing translated current-location page.This has when he was born (so, I changed the “?” in the current-location’s title to that), and this has when/where/how he died (1st Colonel entry, Google mis-translates his name as Joost Sweet), in a battle with England over Geertruidenberg. The first this link says he died in the Battle of Moncontour, but that was 20 years before and in France. As we celebrate Memorial Day this weekend, I thought it appropriate to take a little time to research that (even though his time was before we became a country).This and other works in the Workshop section of the Wikipedia collection for this artist.So far, only work that mentions this artist to appear in Mr. Melcher’s blog.

Kind of looks like Christian Bale playing Glenn Close playing Christian Bale.
